Why was America attacked on September 11, 2001?
What were the reasons given and what are your thoughts on why a bunch of foreigners decided to attack America.?
It is agreed that al qaeda started to take credit for attacks America starting in 1992. We can go back and ask why America was being attacked overseas by Muslim extremists.
Context has a funny way of making commonly accepted myths and beliefs seem like quaint delusions.
Two decades ago it all started. I wonder how many people know the full context of it all
People who are tired of seeing or suffering from oppression in the world
can either choose to forgive, see that responsiblity and faults are shared,
and work with the peaceful reformists in various groups who
recognize the same faults with humanity and society, yet work for change sustainably
OR stay angry, frustrated, can't forgive, feel jealous and even take up arms
to rebel and protest whatever person or group they blame for the problems
whichever groups conspired to cause 9/11 did not have the same faith in or
access to connections solving the problems of disparity or corruption
they blame on the global economic system which they see as favoring the US, Israel and the Jewish/Christian capitalistic powers and influences.
The World Trade Towers symbolized not only this economic system the attackers felt left out of, but also was a visible target to send a public message, an outcry of protest
against the problems and whoever they blamed for it
Basically it was twisted cry for help
and it came out as an attack by anti-US terrorists
who don't have the freedom of speech and access to resources
we have to effect change in positive ways
if the oppressed countries were getting help fast enough to change,
and the people had adequate publicity and process for petitioning
then protests would be peaceable. but change wasn't happening fast enough,
so the men jealous over who is abusing power compete to bring down the top dog.
had America and the world been perfect, where everyone was working together forgiving
and correcting problems, then no attacks would occur in such a healing environment
but America was also distracted and divided politically with people on all sides
complaining about govt and not forgiving the other parties blamed back and forth etc.
So this divisive political environment allowed the plotting and attacks to go through undetected and unthwarted in the din, riding on that negative cloud of energy
connecting angry thoughts and ill will towards others like a circuit.
Nobody on this planet did enough to prevent 9/11 from happening as it did
the common cause was unforgiveness, fear and division that contributed
to why it wasn't detected or stopped in time. there was political division
and hateful energy circulating on both sides.
People who are jealous and unforgiving of what they perceive as injustice
will use their negative energy to protest in disruptive ways
while those who forgive and see how responsibility for change is shared
will find creative ways to solve the problems and change the world for better
these men did not have that forgiveness
so they did not see a better way to "petition for change"
they really believed they were sacrificing themselves for God's greater will
to send this msg to America and the world that the abuse of globalization
was selfish in its materialism and oppression of the poor being enslaved,
and really believe the sacrifice was necessary
the cycle of oppression and projected blame will continue until
everyone is made humble by faith in forgiveness and cooperation across groups
and chooses to change things peaceably by mutual agreement, in an open and inclusive
environment accepting of differences, where there is no longer any need
to compete with greater threat of force and bullying by coersion or by exclusion
9/11 was like a wakeup call, where all the anger and blame came out in the open. And where we progress from there will determine if we need other calls, or we get the message that we need to work smarter and faster to solve problems in the world together, and no longer need alarms going off as a reminder that people are still suffering and aggrieved.
